Thought I'd end up with
But he wasn't a match
Wrote some songs about
Now I listen and laugh
Even almost got married
And for her, I'm so thankful
Wish I could say, "Thank you" to Malcolm
'Cause he was an angel

One taught me love
One taught me patience
And one taught me pain
Now, I'm so amazing
I've loved and I've lost
But that's not what I see
So, look what I got
Look what you taught me
And for that, I say

Thank you, next
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
I'm so I’m so grateful for my ex
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
I'm so I’m so grateful for my ex

Drip too hard, don’t stand too close
You gon' mess around and drown off this wave
Doing all these shows, I’ve been on the road
I don't care where I go, long as I get paid

Bad lil' vibe, she been on my mind
Soon as I get back, she gettin' slayed
Do this all the time, this ain't no surprise
Every other night, another movie gettin' made

Next.
Thank u, next
Thank u, next
I'm so I’m so grateful for my ex
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
I'm so I’m so grateful for my ex

Needless to say, I keep her in check
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless (yeah)
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck (wreck)
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck (wreck)
Needless to say, I'm keeping her in check
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck

Then you're left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're a sunflower
I think your love would be too much
Or you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
You're the sunflower

You're the sunflower
I'm so I’m so grateful for my ex
Thank you, next
Thank you, next
Every other night, another movie gettin' made
